Afghan president calls for close relations with Pakistan


KABUL,-- Afghan President Hamid Karzai on Saturday called for close and friendly relations with his country' s immediate neighbor Pakistan.

"Once again I am calling on Pakistan to choose the way of friendship," Karzai said at a press conference in his fortified Palace here.

He made the appeal in the wake of the clash between border guards of the two countries along the Durand Line in Goshta district of the eastern Nangarhar province Wednesday night that claimed the life of an Afghan policeman and injured two Pakistani troopers.

Durand Line, which divides the two neighboring countries, has not been recognized as official border by Afghanistan. Karzai categorically stated that the "Afghan nation has not recognized the Durand Line and would not accept it in future."

However, the Afghan president pointed that he had visited Pakistan 19 times with the objective to build friendly relations.

The Afghan leader said his government would ink the proposed security pact with the United States if Afghanistan's national interest is respected. Going into details, Karzai said that his government wants the United States to properly equip Afghan national security forcces, to support its economy and ensure his country's viable security.

Karzai also called on the Taliban to give up fighting and defend the Afghanistan soil like the young man Qasim did, a reference to the Afghan policeman who was killed in a clash with Pakistani forces in Goshta district of Nangahar on Wednesday night.

Well, the way they make shows is, they make one show. That show's called a pilot. Then they show that show to the people who make shows, and on the strength of that one show they decide if they're going to make more shows.

Like you, I used to think the world was this great place where everybody lived by the same standards I did, then some kid with a nail showed me I was living in his world, a world where chaos rules not order, a world where righteousness is not rewarded. That's Cesar's world, and if you're not willing to play by his rules, then you're gonna have to pay the price.

You think water moves fast? You should see ice. It moves like it has a mind. Like it knows it killed the world once and got a taste for murder. After the avalanche, it took us a week to climb out. Now, I don't know exactly when we turned on each other, but I know that seven of us survived the slide... and only five made it out. Now we took an oath, that I'm breaking now. We said we'd say it was the snow that killed the other two, but it wasn't. Nature is lethal but it doesn't hold a candle to man.

You see? It's curious. Ted did figure it out - time travel. And when we get back, we gonna tell everyone. How it's possible, how it's done, what the dangers are. But then why fifty years in the future when the spacecraft encounters a black hole does the computer call it an 'unknown entry event'? Why don't they know? If they don't know, that means we never told anyone. And if we never told anyone it means we never made it back. Hence we die down here. Just as a matter of deductive logic.
